TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: RIMO HANSON, FINANCE DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: REVENUE REPORT OCTOBER 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file the Revenue Report for the months of July–October 2025.
BACKGROUND:
In an effort to maintain transparency, the City's Finance Department prepares a monthly Revenue Report for the City's Council's review.
DISCUSSION:
General Fund revenues are not received evenly throughout the fiscal year. During the first half of the fiscal year, there is always an issue of timing difference whereby cash receipts do not align with the projected budget forecast, but during the second half of the year the cash receipts gradually begin to align with the projected budget. See attachment 1 and 2 for revenue details comparison between July–October 2024 and July–October 2025 and explanations in the "Comments" column.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact with this action.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MAYWOOD
AGENDA ITEM NO. 4.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: RIMO HANSON, FINANCE DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 6436 OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF MAYWOOD AND SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE MAYWOOD
COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY APPROVING THE WARRANTS FOR
PAYMENT
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive, approve, and file the warrant ACH registers and payroll wire transfers dated 9/30/2025 through 11/7/2025 and adopt Resolution NO. 6436 approving the Warrants for Payment.
BACKGROUND:
Staff provides warrant registers and wire transfers to City Council as part of Management Controls. The City utilizes resolutions for approving warrants for payment to comply with Section 3-2.06 of the Municipal Code regarding Warrants for Payments. Exhibit A entitled Summary of Warrants and Wire Transfers/ Automated Clearing House (ACH) Transactions serves as a Management Control for complying with Section 3-2.06. Exhibit B entitled Detail of Warrants serves as evidence of Internal Controls utilized by City Finance staff that support these Management Controls for payments made by the City. These controls are carried out through the submission of all required documents supporting the invoices submitted for payment. Prior to payment, the Finance staff reviews all disbursement documents to ensure that they meet the approval requirements and adequate support documentation.
DISCUSSION:
A - PAYMENT APPROVAL - Pursuant to paragraph 37202 of the California Government Code, demands (called Warrant Demand) against the City for payment shall be audited and thereafter submitted to the City Council for approval or rejection prior to payment, either separately or in a register of audited demands and shall have attached thereto affirmation of the City Treasurer and City Finance Director certifying the accuracy of the demands and the availability of funds for payment. This is accomplished using:
A1 - Warrants Registers or checks certified or approved by the City Treasurer and Finance Director as conforming to authorized expenditures set forth in the City Council's adopted City Budget.
A1.1 Prepayment - pre-paying allows the City to take advantage of allowable prompt payment discounts and make payments on due dates of invoices. This involves the issuance of checks prior to final warrant approval.
Automated Clearing House (ACH) transactions are made using a network that electronically moves money between the City's bank accounts to a payee's bank account. This is reflected in the Summary Warrants for Payment and Wire Transfers/ACH Transactions as Accounts Payable prepaid warrants for payment. Wire
Transfer is a method of electronic funds transfer from the City of Maywood to one person or organization (payrolls and fees for electronic transfers).
A1.2 Regular Payment- To avoid late fees for payments made beyond due dates of invoices, checks are prepared prior to final warrant approval by the City Council. This is reflected in the Summary Warrants for Payment and Wire Transfers/AcH Transactions as Accounts Payable regular warrants for payment. After City Council approval, the checks are signed and distributed.
B - DOCUMENTATION - The City uses a Management Control by producing a summary document (Exhibit ASummary Warrants for Payment and Wire Transfers/ACH transactions) that represents the cash disbursements required and the City uses an Internal Control by producing a detailed document (Exhibit BDetail Warrants for Payment) that details information about each check issued for Prepaid and or to-be-paid for Regular Payments. These "disbursements" are accounted for in the FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26 budget.
B1- SUMMARY WARRANTS FOR PAYMENT and WIRE TRANSFERS/ACH TRANSACTIONS provide an accounting of the Accounts Payable Registers, wire transfers (method of electronic funds transfer from the City of Maywood to one person or organization), and Automated Clearing House (ACH) transactions.
B2 - DETAIL WARRANTS FOR PAYMENTS provides the detailed information of approved payments made to the City's vendors and contractors by check number, identification of prepaid, date of warrant, vendor name, check amount, transaction description, and fund source. Wire transfers also enable the City to send electronic funds to the bank accounts of the City's vendors and contractors. The warrant registers, wire transfers, and net payrolls reflect the financial obligations of the City for the above-referenced dates.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total disbursements for Warrant Registers are $1,086,615.50 for the period from 9/30/2025 to 11/7/2025.
This amount consists of Warrant Registers of $850,987.21, ACH registers of $105,207.73 and Payroll Wire Transfers of $130,121.56.

ATTACHMENT(S)
1. Maywood Engagement Letter FY 2025
November 10, 2025
To: Management and the City Council
City of Maywood
Maywood, CA
We are pleased to confirm our understanding of the services we are to provide the City of Maywood (City) for the year ended June 30, 2025.
Audit Scope and Objectives
We will audit the financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information, including the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the basic financial statements, of the City as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025. Accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America provide for certain required supplementary information (RSI), such as management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A), to supplement the City’s basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. As part of our engagement, we will apply certain limited procedures to the City’s RSI in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. These limited procedures will consist of inquiries of management regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We will not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. The following RSI is required by generally accepted accounting principles and will be subjected to certain limited procedures, but will not be audited:
1) Management’s Discussion and Analysis
2) Budgetary comparison schedules.
3) Pension and OPEB RSI.
We have also been engaged to report on supplementary information other than RSI that accompanies the City’s financial statements. We will subject the following supplementary information to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, and we will provide an opinion on it in relation to the financial statements as a whole, in a report combined with our auditor’s report on the financial statements:
1) Schedule of expenditures of federal awards.
2) Combining schedules.
In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, we will read the following other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report. 1) Introductory Section
2) Statistical Section
1
The objectives of our audit are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions about whether your financial statements are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with GAAP, and report on the fairness of the supplementary information referred to in the second paragraph when considered in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements, including omissions, can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment of a reasonable user made based on the financial statements. The objectives also include reporting on:
Internal control over financial reporting and compliance with provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and award agreements, noncompliance with which could have a material effect on the financial statements in accordance with Government Auditing Standards.
Internal control over compliance related to major programs and an opinion (or disclaimer of opinion) on compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of federal awards that could have a direct and material effect on each major program in accordance with the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements and Single Audit We will conduct our audit in accordance with GAAS; the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996; and the provisions of the Uniform Guidance, and will include tests of accounting records, a determination of major program(s) in accordance with Uniform Guidance, and other procedures we consider necessary to enable us to express such opinions. As part of an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We will evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management. We will also evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and determine whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether from (1) errors, (2) fraudulent financial reporting, (3) misappropriation of assets, or (4) violations of laws or governmental regulations that are attributable to the government or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of the government.
Because the determination of waste and abuse is subjective, Government Auditing Standards do not expect auditors to perform specific procedures to detect waste or abuse in financial audits nor do they expect auditors to provide reasonable assurance of detecting waste or abuse.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, combined with the inherent limitations of internal control, and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements or noncompliance may not be detected by us, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards. In addition, an audit is not designed to detect immaterial misstatements or violations of laws or governmental regulations that do not have a direct and material effect on the financial statements or on major programs. However, we will inform the appropriate level of management of any material errors, any fraudulent financial reporting, or misappropriation of assets that come to our attention. We will also inform the appropriate level of management of any violations of laws or governmental regulations that come to our attention, unless clearly inconsequential. We will include such matters in the reports required for a Single Audit. Our responsibility as auditors is limited to the period covered by our audit and does not extend to any later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors.
We will also conclude, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the government’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the accounts, tests of the physical existence of inventories, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals, funding sources, creditors, and financial institutions. We will also request written representations from your attorneys as part of the engagement. 2
We have identified the following significant risk of material misstatement as part or our audit planning. According to GAAS, significant risks include management override of controls. Accordingly, we have considered management override of controls as a significant risk.
We may, from time to time and depending on the circumstances, use third-party service providers in serving your account. We may share confidential information about you with these service providers but remain committed to maintaining the confidentiality and security of your information. Accordingly, we maintain internal policies, procedures, and safeguards to protect the confidentiality of your personal information. In addition, we will secure confidentiality agreements with all service providers to maintain the confidentiality of your information and we will take reasonable precautions to determine that they have appropriate procedures in place to prevent the unauthorized release of your confidential information to others. In the event that we are unable to secure an appropriate confidentiality agreement, you will be asked to provide your consent prior to the sharing of your confidential information with the third-party service provider. Furthermore, we will remain responsible for the work provided by any such third-party service providers.
Our audit of financial statements does not relieve you of your responsibilities.
We will also provide a report on agreed upon procedures performed on the City’s calculation of its annual appropriations limit as required by Article XIII B of the California State Constitution. We will perform the procedures in the Article XIII B Appropriations Limit Uniform Guidelines as published by the League of California Cities. This report will include a statement that the report is intended solely for the information and use of management, City Council and specific legislative or regulatory bodies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
Audit Procedures—Internal Control
We will obtain an understanding of the government and its environment, including internal control relevant to the audit, sufficient to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and to design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and obtain evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentation, or the override of internal control. Tests of controls may be performed to test the effectiveness of certain controls that we consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and fraud that are material to the financial statements and to preventing and detecting misstatements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. Our tests, if performed, will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on internal control and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on internal control issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards.
As required by the Uniform Guidance, we will perform tests of controls over compliance to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we consider relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with compliance requirements applicable to each major federal award program. However, our tests will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on those controls and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on internal control issued pursuant to the Uniform Guidance.
An audit is not designed to provide assurance on internal control or to identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. Accordingly, we will express no such opinion. However, during the audit, we will communicate to management and those charged with governance internal control related matters that are required to be communicated under AICPA professional standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance.
Audit Procedures—Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, we will perform tests of the City’s compliance with provisions of applicable laws, regulations, contracts, and agreements, including grant agreements. However, the objective of those procedures will not be to provide an opinion on overall compliance and we will not express such an opinion in our report on compliance issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards.
The Uniform Guidance requires that we also plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the auditee has complied with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of federal awards applicable to major programs. Our procedures will consist of tests of transactions and other applicable procedures described in the OMB Compliance Supplement for the types of compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City’s major programs. The purpose of these procedures will be to express an opinion on the City’s compliance with requirements applicable to each of its major programs in our report on compliance issued pursuant to the Uniform Guidance.

FROM CEQA
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council find the project exempt from CEQA under Section 15332, Class 32 (InFill Development), and approve Final Parcel Map PC24-04 (PM84166), and authorize its filing with the Los Angeles County Recorder's Office.
BACKGROUND:
On January 16, 2024, Planning Staff presented to the Planning Commission a Tentative Parcel Map Application No. PC23-04, (TPM84166) to merge parcels located at 4539 East 59th Place, Assessor’s Parcel Number ("APN") 6313-011-021 and 4545 East 59th Place, APN 6313-011-20 into one parcel and fine the merger exempt from CEQA.
The two parcels are owned by the Applicant. Parcel "A" is located at 4539 East 59th Place. Parcel "B" is located directly above Parcel A on the same lot, and is given the address 4545 East 59th Place. The Applicant is proposing a residential addition to the existing structure. The City cannot approve development of a noncompliant structure and parcels. Parcel A contains the single family dwelling unit. The dimensions of Parcel A are approximately 39 feet by 70 feet. Parcel B contains the detached garage and is considered a flag lot.
Parcel B dimensions are one (1) foot by 70 feet from East 59th Place, and 40 feet by 70 feet in the rear. The parcels will need to be consolidated before the City can review the proposed scope of work on the existing structure.

AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: DAISY GUERRERO, DEPUTY DIRECTORY OF BUILDING AND PLANNING SUBJECT: RECONSIDERATION OF THE CITY'S PREVIOUS ACTION AND RESCIND THE AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH FLOCK GROUP INC.
FOR AUTOMATED LICENSE PLATE READERS (ALPR) FOR PUBLIC SAFETY
TECHNOLOGY SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council reconsider its prior action authorizing the City to enter into an agreement with Flock Group Inc. for Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) camera services and rescind the authorization provided to the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND:
On February 26, 2025, the City Council approved an agenda item authorizing the City to enter into an agreement with Flock Group Inc. for the installation of automated license plate recognition (ALPR) cameras to support local public safety efforts. Following City Council action, the agreement was not executed, and the Flock Group Inc. services were never implemented in the City as locations for the cameras were being reviewed.
Since that time, significant changes in the local, state, and national landscape, particularly involving federal immigration enforcement policies and increased community concern regarding data-sharing, surveillance technologies, and public safety, have prompted further internal review of the proposed partnership.
DISCUSSION:
Although the original intent of the Flock Group Inc. camera program was to enhance local crime prevention and assist law enforcement with investigative resources, community trust and public safety outcomes must be considered in equal measure.
Following the City Council's initial action of this agreement, heightened Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity and potential reported collaborations between federal agencies and local law enforcement technologies have generated significant concern among immigrant communities, including fears that surveillance platforms, even when used for local policing, could inadvertently enable federal enforcement
actions or compromise community safety, mobility, and privacy.
The City of Maywood is home to a large immigrant population, many of whom are essential workers, longstanding residents, and deeply rooted in the social and economic fabric of our community. The City acknowledges the importance of:
• Preserving trust between residents and local government, • Protecting vulnerable communities from potential unintended data sharing or surveillance impacts, and • Maintaining public safety strategies that do not create fear or deter community members from living, working, or accessing services within the City.
While Flock Group Inc. has stated that its systems are designed for local law enforcement use, growing public concern surrounding third-party data retention, data sharing, and federal access pathways has prompted the need for a revised policy determination.
Given these concerns, and the fact that no contract was executed or services initiated, staff recommends that the City consider the withdrawal from the previously approved action and rescind its authorization to the City Manager to enter into the agreement.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact at this time. The agreement with Flock Safety was never executed, no services were rendered, and no City funds were expended. While the City previously appropriated $61,100 for this program, rescinding the prior action will eliminate any future financial obligations and ensure that allocated funds remain unspent and available for other City priorities.

6. PAYMENT OF FEES
6.1 Billing and Payment of Fees. Customer shall pay the fees set forth in the applicable Order Form based on the billing structure and payment terms as indicated in the Order Form. To the extent the Order Form is silent, Customer shall pay all invoices net thirty (30) days from the date
of receipt. If Customer believes that Flock has billed Customer incorrectly, Customer shall use reasonable efforts contact Flock no later than thirty (30) days after the closing date on the first invoice in which the error or problem appeared to receive an adjustment or credit. Customer acknowledges and agrees that a failure to contact Flock within this period will serve as a waiver of any claim, except a claim that any Flock Hardware installed by Flock is not properly functioning. If any undisputed fee is more than thirty (30) days overdue, Flock may, without limiting its other rights and remedies, suspend delivery of its service until such undisputed invoice is paid in full. Flock shall provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Customer of the payment delinquency before exercising any suspension right.
6.2 Notice of Changes to Fees. In the event of any changes to fees, Flock shall provide Customer with sixty (60) days’ notice (email sufficient) prior to the end of the Initial Term or Renewal Term (as applicable). Any such changes to fees shall only impact subsequent Renewal Terms.
6.3 Taxes. To the extent Customer is not a tax exempt entity, Customer is responsible for all taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only taxes based on Flock’s net income, imposed by taxing authorities associated with the order. If Flock has the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes, including amount subsequently assessed by a taxing authority, for which Customer is responsible, the appropriate amount shall be invoice to and paid by Customer unless Customer provides Flock a legally sufficient tax exemption certificate and Flock shall not charge Customer any taxes from which it is exempt. If any deduction or withholding is required by law, Customer shall notify Flock and shall pay Flock any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that Flock receives, after any deduction and withholding, equals the amount Flock would have received if no deduction or withholding had been required.
7. TERM AND TERMINATION
7.1 Term. Unless sooner terminated as provided herein, the initial term of this Agreement shall be the period of time set forth on the Order Form (the “Term”). Unless otherwise indicated on the Order Form, the Term shall commence upon first installation of Flock Hardware, as applicable. Following the Term, unless otherwise indicated on the Order Form, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal terms of the greater of one year or the length set
forth on the Order Form (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either Party gives the other Party notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term.
7.2 Termination. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, Flock will remove any applicable Flock Hardware at a commercially reasonable time period. In the event of any material breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching Party may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Term by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to the breaching Party; provided, however, that this Agreement will not terminate if the breaching Party has cured the breach prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period (“Cure Period”). Either Party may terminate this Agreement (i) upon the institution by or against the other Party of insolvency, receivership or bankruptcy proceedings, (ii) upon the other Party's making an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (iii) upon the other Party's dissolution or ceasing to do business. In the event of a material breach by Flock, and Flock is unable to cure within the Cure Period, Flock will refund Customer a pro-rata portion of the pre-paid fees for Services not received due to such termination.
7.3 Survival. The following Sections will survive termination: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.3, 8.4, 9, 11.1 and 11.6.
8. REMEDY FOR DEFECT; WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMER
8.1 Manufacturer Defect. Upon a malfunction or failure of Flock Hardware or Embedded Software to perform as represented by Flock or as described in any applicable documentation (a “Defect”), Customer shall utilize reasonable efforts to notify Flock’s technical support team. In the event of a Defect, Flock shall make a commercially reasonable attempt to repair or replace the defective Flock Hardware at no additional cost to the Customer. Flock reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to repair or replace such Defect, provided that Flock shall conduct inspection or testing within a commercially reasonable time, but no longer than seven (7) business days after Customer gives notice to Flock.
8.2 Replacements. In the event that Flock Hardware is lost, stolen, or damaged, Customer may request a replacement of Flock Hardware at a fee according to the reinstall fee schedule (https://www.flocksafety.com/reinstall-fee-schedule). In the event that Customer chooses not to replace lost, damaged, or stolen Flock Hardware, Customer understands and agrees that Flock is not liable for any resulting impact to Flock service, nor shall Customer receive a refund for the lost, damaged, or stolen Flock Hardware. However, annual fees paid hereunder shall be reduced in proportion to the reduced functionality resulting from the reduction in Flock Hardware.
8.3 Warranty. Flock shall use reasonable efforts consistent with prevailing industry standards to maintain the Services in a manner which minimizes errors and interruptions in the Services and shall perform the Installation Services in a professional and workmanlike manner. Services may be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance or for unscheduled emergency maintenance, either by Flock or by third-party providers, or because of other causes beyond Flock’s reasonable control, but Flock shall use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice in writing or by e-mail of any scheduled service disruption.
8.4 Service Level Guarantee. Flock understands and agrees that Customer is a public entity and that the Services are paid for with public funds. Therefore, in order to ensure accountability to the public and that the public is receiving the level of performance of online services for which public funds are being paid (“Guaranteed Service Levels”), Flock agrees that, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, “Uptime Availability” of the Web Interface shall be not less than 99% over any calendar month period based on the following formula: “Scheduled Uptime” = the total minutes in the reporting month, minus the total minutes consumed by scheduled downtime for
maintenance or documented force majeure events. “Actual Uptime” means the total minutes in the reporting month that the Web Interface was actually available to Customer and Authorized End Users for normal use. “Uptime Availability” = (Actual Uptime/Scheduled Uptime) x 100.
Failure to maintain the Guaranteed Service Levels for any two consecutive month period shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.
8.4 Disclaimer. THE REMEDY DESCRIBED IN SECTION 8.1 ABOVE IS CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY, AND FLOCK’S SOLE LIABILITY, WITH RESPECT TO DEFECTS.
FLOCK DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE; NOR DOES IT MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE SERVICES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND FLOCK
DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS DISCLAIMER ONLY APPLIES TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.

DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: DAISY GUERRERO, DEPUTY DIRECTORY OF BUILDING AND PLANNING SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO EXTEND THE WILLDAN
ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR CODE
COMPLIANCE SERVICES IN AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $40,000.00
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council: (i) Approve an amendment to the existing Professional Services Agreement with Willdan Engineering for Code Compliance services extending the agreement for an additional three (3) months in the final form approved by the City Manager and City Attorney; and authorize an additional appropriation of $40,000 for the agreement for a new not-to-exceed contract total of $70,000, to be paid using Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
BACKGROUND:
On July 21, 2025, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Willdan Engineering to provide support for the City’s Code Compliance Division, with contract term through December 31, 2025, unless extended or terminated sooner; and a not-to-exceed amount of $30,000.
At the time, the City initiated the agreement to maintain code compliance operations while recruiting for a permanent Code Compliance Officer. Since execution, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds have been used to cover all service invoices.
DISCUSSION:
The City is actively recruiting to fill the full-time Code Compliance Officer position. Over the past three months, the City conducted two recruitment cycles and advanced multiple candidates to interviews. However, no finalist sufficiently met the operational needs of the department. The City is now in the process of another round of interviews to identify a qualified candidate. During this interim period, Willdan’s assigned Code Compliance Officer has demonstrated exceptional performance, conducting proactive community outreach, resolving complex compliance cases, reducing active code violations, and helping the City regain compliance in historically challenging areas.
Given current workload demands and ongoing recruitment efforts, continuity of service is critical to avoid
disruption of enforcement operations. Staff therefore recommends a three-month contract extension to maintain uninterrupted services while recruitment is finalized, along with a brief overlap period between Willdan’s officer and the incoming Code Compliance Officer to support training, knowledge transfer, and operational continuity.
The agreement is approaching the current $30,000 expenditure cap previously approved by the City Manager.
To avoid service disruption and support the proposed extension, staff is requesting an additional $40,000 appropriation, bringing the revised contract total to $70,000.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All services rendered to date have been funded through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The additional $40,000 request is appropriately budgeted within the CDBG fund. For Fiscal Year 2025-26, the City has allocated $112,873 from the CDBG Fund to support Code Enforcement activities. This amendment ensures continuity of essential code compliance services without placing any additional fiscal burden on the City’s unrestricted funds.

DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: JERRY GOMEZ, PUBLIC WORKS SUPERINTENDENT
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION TO APPROVE THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING FOR
THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS OF THE JOHN ANSON FORD PARK INFILTRATION CISTERN PROJECT IN AN ANNUAL AMOUNT OF $5,320.00 RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Memorandum of Understanding for the Maintenance and Operations of the John Anson Ford Park Infiltration Cistern Project in the form approved by the City Attorney and authorize the City Manager to execute the memorandum of understanding.
BACKGROUND:
The Memorandum of Understanding MOU agreement between the permittee members of the Los Angeles River Upper Reach 2 (LAR UR2) Watershed Group establishes an annual cost share for continued maintenance and operation of the John Anson Ford Park Infiltration Cistern Project. Project is located at 8000 Park Lane, Bell Gardens CA 90201. This is the first completed regional project for the LAR UR2 group, as required by the approved Watershed Management Plan (WMP), and contributes toward compliance with LA County MS4 Permit requirements.
Among the six original, regional BMP projects proposed in the 2015 LAR UR2 WMA WMP Plan, the John Anson Ford Park Infiltration Cistern Project, located in the City of Bell Gardens, has the largest runoff capture volume and the highest construction priority. Now complete, the project is expected to capture runoff from a drainage area of 2,295 acres to assist the LAR UR2 WMA group with meeting water quality objectives with dryand wet-weather Rio Hondo River discharge requirements. Captured runoff will then be discharged into a subsurface cistern that will facilitate infiltration and groundwater recharge. In addition to water quality and water supply benefits, the Project revitalized the existing park, by addition of 10,000 square feet of habitat restoration to the wilderness area and pond in the eastern portion of the park, educational signage to promote water conservation, a new sports complex to enhance recreational opportunity, and planting of native and drought tolerant landscaping to support wildlife habitat.
In late 2018, the LAR UR2 WMA group jointly funded the preparation of several San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains Conservancy (RMC) Proposition 1 Lower Los Angeles River (P1 LLAR) Grant Applications, including one for the John Anson Ford Park project. Funds from the RMC grant applications were supposed to be released in Spring 2019; however, funds still have not been released as of June 2021. In December 2019, the LAR UR2 WMA submitted a grant application during Round 1 of the Safe, Clean Water Program. Ultimately, the project secured $10 million in funding through the Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Area Steering Committee (WASC). The City of Bell Gardens authorized the release of the project’s construction bid package in August 2019, resulting in a bid award to a construction contractor in November
2019, and a formal Notice-to-Proceed (NTP) was issued on January 13, 2020. Construction was completed during the 2024-2025 reporting year.
DISCUSSION:
The project is designed to capture, retain, infiltrate, and replenish urban runoff by Installing a stormwater capture and subsurface Infiltration system at John Anson Ford Park. The project includes a constructed diversion structure and subsurface infiltration basin below John Anson Ford Park to capture and recharge up to 1,200 acre-feet per year of dry-weather and storm runoff from a catchment area of 2,295 acres. The project diverts stormflows from an existing stormwater drainage system, includes a water treatment facility beneath the northerly parking lot at John Anson Ford Park, and constructed bottomless cisterns beneath the existing baseball field and soccer field.
The John Anson Ford Park Maintenance fee share amount is required for all members of the LAR UR2 Group.
The project is needed to meet Group compliance requirements in accordance with the approved August 1, 2023, Watershed Management Plan (WMP)
Final approval of the Los Angeles River Upper Reach 2 Watershed Management Group’s Watershed Management Plan was provided by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board on November 14, 2024.
The approved Watershed Management Plan requires the LAR UR2 group to implement projects (related to the capture of urban stormwater runoff and improve water quality) to comply with state water quality objectives.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost share amounts will follow the same percentage share for each Permittee as established for the GWMA membership (Maywood’s is 5.32%). The total cost share is assumed to be $100,000.00 at this time and Maywood’s portion would be $5,320. This budget item has been incorporated into the amended 25/26 Annual Plan budget for Safe Clean Water fund. The City will appropriate $5,320 to the Measure W Fund during the Mid-Year Review, scheduled for January 2026.
The city's share will continue for the life of the infiltration cistern and be included in future annual budgets.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MAYWOOD
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: JOHN THORNTON, COMMUNITY SERVICES SUPERVISOR
SUBJECT: CONSIDER THE APPOINTMENT OF THREE (3) YOUTHS TO FILL VACANCIES ON
THE MAYWOOD YOUTH COMMISSION
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council review the eleven applications and appoint three youth members to the Maywood Youth Commission in order to establish a full board. This will allow the Commission to continue meeting with a quorum, complete its agenda items, and effectively serve as the voice of Maywood’s youth community.
BACKGROUND:
In September 2023, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 23-09 to establish the City Youth Commission.
The Commission was created to give young people in Maywood a voice, provide input on issues affecting youth, and advise the City Council on youth-related matters. It is made up of five members, aged 15 to 18, who either live in the city or attend school in Maywood. Members are appointed by the City Council for two-year terms, with a limit of two terms per member, and initial appointments were staggered to ensure continuity. The Commission meets at least once a month, selects a chairperson, vice-chairperson, and members receive a $50 monthly stipend, with possible reimbursement for approved expenses. Its duties include gathering information on youth issues, promoting youth programs, collaborating with schools and community organizations, organizing events, and advocating for youth needs. Members who miss three meetings without cause in a year may have their membership automatically terminated. The Commission is also required to provide an annual report to the City Council on its activities and accomplishments. The ordinance went into effect 30 days after adoption.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Maywood established the Youth Commission in 2023 to increase understanding and awareness of issues facing youth in the community, help them develop leadership skills and social responsibility. The Commission will address community issues from a youth perspective, and help identify solutions. The Commission also provides youth with a voice in the community, encourages participation in decision-making that affects them and their community, works on projects that improve the City of Maywood, advises the City Council on youth-related matters, promotes understanding of government, and supports youth involvement in community development and city government. To achieve these goals, the Commission is composed of five members, with at least three required to establish a quorum. Currently, there are three vacant seats due to members aging out and being unable to attend meetings. Staff received eleven applications and recommend
that City Council appoint three of the eleven applicants to the current vacancies.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report
FISCAL IMPACT:
Youth Commission stipends are budgeted within the Community Services Division for five (5) appointed members at $50 per member per month, for twelve (12) months, totaling $3,000 for FY 2025-26.

If yes what is your Address?
Briefly state reasons why you are interested in serving on this commission.
I am most excited to serve on this commission because of the integral platform it gives to the youth of Maywood. I am very interested in being civically engaged and the promotion of civic engagement in youth.
A large part of Maywood is composed of youth which is why institutions like the maywood commission are so important to ensure such a large voice of maywood city is heard. I am extremely passionate about utilizing my voice to uplift others, the maywood city commission is the perfect opportunity for me to voice my and my peers' concerns. I would cherish the opportunity to create real change by investing in our community including accessibility to life changing resources, transparency with the public, and ensuring the empowerment of our city and its people.
What would be your goal(s) if selected to serve on this commission? (If you require more space please attach more to the back)
I believe my key goal on the commission would be to critically empower the citizens of Maywood. To ensure this empowerment I can break it up into small tasks including, quality education, inclusivity, and safety.
In the city of Maywood, with a predominantly Hispanic community, we run into political barriers such as the law system and the misinformation. This intern, means that most students that come from these backgrounds aren't typically aware of politics or the importance of politics, rendering them confused and often feeling like they don’t deserve to participate in these conversations. By hosting workshops from elementary students to senior citizens, we can ensure a civically engaged and aware city of Maywood because they deserve to understand the choices being made in these court houses will affect them. The beauty of being educated is the voice it gives someone, by securing quality education we give everyone the platform they deserve.
Similarly, we can address inclusivity to delegate empowerment. Inclusivity allows for all people regardless of background to get resources like health or educational opportunities to shine. To be inclusive, this means taking into account all of the different people of Maywood and continuing with an empathetic and community based approach. I want to give everyone the space they need to speak and ensure that even a small request, question, or critique is worth the time and effort. To function as a successful city we must understand that working together, including one another, is key to the blossoming of Maywood!
My third, but not last goal is to allow citizens of Maywood to feel safe in their community. During this past summer we saw the brutality of ICE raids and the racist rhetoric against communities like ours.
This makes our citizens feel small and hopeless, susceptible to dictator-like power. By spreading resources, hosting cultural events, and most important utilizing the sheriffs to protect our people and make them know they are safe. When we are safe, we can empower one another to do amazing things
What is the biggest issue you feel youth face in Maywood or in your neighborhood? And how would you advise the Mayor and City Council to address this issue?
I feel like the biggest issue youth face is extreme disconnect with one another. This disconnect leads to bullying, utilization of drugs, and gang activity. As humans, we look to one another to feel security and safety so in times of disconnection people pit against one another or look to other sources of security like substance abuse. I would advise the City council to host events that give teens a youth specific space where they can come from different backgrounds, schools, even communities and know that these events are a safe space where they can be themselves, make friends, and find a community. In these spaces we can also offer opportunities to learn about the importance of surrounding yourself with empowering and safe communities. We can also provide mentorship and counseling to advise young people and steer them into the right directions of their future. These spaces will deter people who feel isolated into a flourishing community where they know they can fall back onto and if one of their peers falls, they themselves will be there to pick each other up.
Please list and briefly describe your school and community activities (clubs, volunteer activities, athletics, and classes.
Some civically engaged activities I participate in are debate, youth and government, and the beginnings of the civic engagement society, a club, at my school. This is my second year of debate and I am a co-captain of my team. I love debate because it educates me about current events and policies being enacted in the United States. Debate also trains me to analyze an issue from all sides which means I analyze scenarios with an empathetic and logical lens to ensure I am not leaning too much on a certain side. Similarly, in youth and government I get to debate topics and learn more about our government system. As vice president of youth and government at the YMCA, I get to facilitate and empower others to utilize their voice and make them know about the positions they can hold in the future. I am also a founding member of the Civic Engagement Society at my school which focuses on helping youth become civically and politically involved by holding voting registrations and in the future, workshops to educate others about the importance and logistics of our political system. I have been involved in robotics for 3 years and been president for 2 years. I love being president because I get to collaborate with others on difficult engineering topics that I would’ve never been able to do alone. We also host an elementary robotics competition league which is one of my favorite parts of being the president because I get to engage with even younger students and inspire them to continue with STEM pathways and promoting computer science in the future. I also participate in an organization called Youth Champions which focuses on empowering students with life-long skills. As a student leader in youth champions, I am able to connect with my peers and facilitate discussions about topics like time management skills, college readiness, and becoming goal oriented in a weekly meeting. I also participated in Volleyball and Wrestling for 2 years at my school. I loved both of these sports because of such a rigorous course load, these sports gave me the opportunity to play with others and an opportunity to have fun after such heavy days. I love all of these activities because they reflect my morals and ideals in my current and future life.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MAYWOOD
AGENDA ITEM NO. 11.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 6437 APPROVING A COST-OF-LIVING ADJUSTMENT (COLA) AND WORK-FROM-HOME OPTION FOR NON-REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES INCLUDING THE FINANCE DIRECTOR; DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF BUILDING AND PLANNING; HUMAN RESOURCES/RISK MANAGER; AND DEPUTY CITY CLERK/

BACKGROUND:
In the past, the City’s exempt non-represented group has generally adopted the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) established with the represented employee group. However, the previously adopted MOU expired as of June 30, 2025. As part of ongoing personnel and compensation considerations, the City has met with the non-represented employees to review and discuss terms for adjustments, including cost-ofliving, work schedule options, and related provisions.
This resolution formalizes the agreed-upon adjustments for the specified non-represented classifications, consistent with the City’s authority and personnel policies.
DISCUSSION:
The City Manager, serving as the designated negotiator, met with the non-represented employees to review compensation and work schedule matters. The parties reached an agreement that includes a 4% Cost-ofLiving Adjustment (COLA) effective the first full pay period after July 1, 2025, with retroactive pay, as well as a one-day-per-week work-from-home option. The work-from-home option would be discontinued in the event the City adopts a 4/10 work schedule. These adjustments are intended to recognize the contributions of the nonrepresented employees while maintaining consistency with City policies and operational needs.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The 4% salary increase for non-represented employees results in an additional $19,760 in salary costs and $2,923 in related retirement costs for fiscal year 2025-26. These adjustments will be incorporated into the MidYear Budget Review in January 2026.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MAYWOOD
AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: DAISY GUERRERO, DEPUTY DIRECTORY OF BUILDING AND PLANNING SUBJECT: DISCUSSION REGARDING THE UPDATE TO THE ZONING CODE AND PROVIDE
DIRECTION REGARDING A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR THE UDPATE RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council: (i) receive and file this report; and (ii) provide direction to staff to begin development of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a comprehensive Zoning Code update, with the draft RFP, anticipated project schedule, and budget considerations to be brought back to City Council for review and approval prior to release.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Maywood’s Zoning Ordinance (Title 9 of the Maywood Municipal Code) is one of the most critical regulatory tools guiding land use and development throughout the City. The Zoning Code implements the vision and policies of the General Plan by translating broad planning goals into enforceable development regulations, land use standards, and design criteria. These regulations are essential for promoting orderly growth, protecting neighborhood character, enhancing the built environment, preserving property values, and supporting community health, safety, and quality of life.
A modern and effective Zoning Code must also be clear, user-friendly, and legally compliant, providing predictable guidance for residents, businesses, developers, and City staff. As State land use and housing laws continue to evolve, it is critical that the City’s Zoning Code be updated to ensure compliance with current State and Federal requirements, eliminate regulatory conflicts, incorporate best planning practices, and align with the City’s long-term goals for economic development, housing opportunity, environmental resilience, and sustainable growth.
DISCUSSION:
Since the City’s most recent comprehensive update to the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance has become inconsistent with several updated General Plan elements, including Circulation, Housing, Land Use, Safety, and Environmental Justice. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65860(c)(1), when a zoning ordinance becomes inconsistent with an amended General Plan, the City is required to amend the zoning regulations within a reasonable time to restore consistency. To meet this statutory requirement and ensure alignment with
local policy and State law, a comprehensive update to the City’s Zoning Code is necessary.
The City’s current Zoning Ordinance (Title 9 of the Maywood Municipal Code) has been in effect since April 28, 2009, with limited amendments since adoption. The most recent amendment occurred on May 22, 2024, specific only to the establishment of Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) development standards. While this update addressed an immediate regulatory need, the Zoning Code has not undergone a holistic modernization in over 15 years. Given the significant changes in State planning and housing law, environmental policy, development trends, and community priorities, a full update is now both timely and critical.
The development of a new Zoning Code will achieve several key objectives, including:
• Restoring consistency with the General Plan and compliance with State and Federal regulations; • Modernizing land use standards to reflect current planning best practices and legal requirements; • Improving clarity, usability, and functionality for residents, businesses, developers, and City staff; • Introducing graphics, tables, and formatting enhancements to clearly communicate regulations; and • Establishing a more predictable, transparent, and user-friendly development review process.
To initiate this multi-phase effort, staff plans to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit qualified planning firms with expertise in zoning modernization, State regulatory compliance, and community engagement. The City anticipates releasing the RFP in early 2026, pending City Council review and approval of the final RFP and proposed project schedule. Based on comparable zoning modernization efforts statewide, the development of a new Zoning Code is anticipated to take approximately 12 to 24 months to complete, depending on scope, regulatory complexity, and public engagement components.
Public outreach will be incorporated throughout the process, including community engagement opportunities and formal public hearings before both the Planning Commission and City Council prior to final adoption of the updated Zoning Code. Staff will return to Council with detailed cost estimates, funding options, and a consultant selection recommendation prior to contract execution.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney reviewed this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no initial fiscal impact with this action. Nevertheless, modernizing a Zoning Code is a major municipal investment due to its technical complexity, legal significance, community engagement requirements, environmental analysis, and long-term implementation impact.
At this stage, exact costs are to be determined, as they will be shaped by consultant proposals, project scope, outreach strategy, and regulatory requirements. However, comparable efforts in California cities demonstrate that comprehensive zoning updates require:
• Significant consultant and technical planning resources • Extensive legal, environmental, and policy analysis
• Robust community engagement strategies
• Interdepartmental coordination and staff capacity support Funding options will be presented to City Council as part of the RFP review and approval process prior to contract award.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MAYWOOD
AGENDA ITEM NO. 13.
DATE: November 19, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JENNIFER VASQUEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: JOHN THORNTON, COMMUNITY SERVICES SUPERVISOR
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF APPROVING THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FUND
APPLICATION FROM IRVINE FC ACADEMY - MAYWOOD IN THE AMOUNT OF $10,000 TO SUPPORT THE YOUTH SOCCER PROGRAM TOURNAMENT FEES AND
FIELD RENTAL COST
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Community Benefit Fund application from Irvine FC Academy – Maywood in the amount of $10,000.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Maywood has established a “Community Based Fund” to support community-based programs and activities. Applicant eligibility is determined by the City’s Community Benefit Fund Guidelines and Procedures (“Guidelines”) for the distribution of funds to eligible organizations that provide community-based programs, community activities and educational activities. The City received an application dated October 10, 2025 by email from Irvine FC Academy - Maywood, which is discussed further below.
Irvine FC Academy – Maywood is a youth soccer program focused on engaging boys ages 13–17 through competitive athletic development. The team competes in the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) and travels throughout Southern California for weekend matches. The program was created to keep local youth active, connected, and positively engaged during the summer months, offering structure and support while helping to deter involvement in negative activities. In its first season, the team served approximately 20–30 participants. Practices are held at Maywood Academy High School, with games hosted on weekends at Maywood Center for Enriched Studies.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant, Irvine FC Academy – Maywood, is requesting funding to support its boys’ soccer program by covering tournament fees and field rental costs. The proposed budget allocates 60% of the funds towards field rental fees, 40% towards referee fees.
Qualification Review
Per the grant guidelines, to apply for a grant under the City Community Benefit Fund, the Eligible Organization must provide a program, service, activity, event or other similar activities that have a benefit to the residents of the City of Maywood or the specified target group within the City by: (i) enhancing the quality of life or the delivery of services in the City; or (ii) providing educational opportunities for the residents or students of the
City. Categories of services and activities eligible for grants include, but are not limited to, educational programs, cultural activities (i.e. music, art, dance, recreation), youth athletics, civic projects, health and safety programs, services sponsored by Maywood community organizations and public services (i.e. senior services, youth programs, health services). If the request relates to a community event, the event must be advertised and open to the public.
Irvine FC Academy, established on March 12, 2024, is a youth recreation program dedicated to serving boys ages 13–17 who reside in the City of Maywood. The program was developed to provide a positive, structured outlet for teens during the summer months, with a focus on physical fitness, teamwork, and personal development through competitive soccer.
Participants in the program are primarily students enrolled at Maywood Center for Enriched Studies (MaCES) and Maywood Academy High School. The team competes in the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) and participates in summer tournaments that serve as college showcases. These events offer players the chance to be seen by college scouts and recruiters, creating valuable opportunities to earn athletic scholarships and pursue higher education, many of whom may be first-generation college students.
By combining recreation with academic potential, Irvine FC Academy not only promotes a healthy and active lifestyle but also supports long-term educational and career pathways for youth in the community. The program aims to reduce youth involvement in negative activities by fostering discipline, leadership, and community pride.
Funding support for this program would go directly toward covering tournament fees and field usage, ensuring equitable access for all participants regardless of financial background.
Accordingly, based on the documentation provided by the applicant in support of their application, staff recommends that the City Council approve their request.

To apply for recognition of tax-exempt status, organizations must complete an application on one of the following forms: Form 1023, Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; Form 1023-EZ, Streamlined Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; Form 1024, Application for Recognition Under Section 501(a); or Form 1024-A, Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Nearly all organizations claiming tax-exempt status must file a Form 990-series annual information return (Form 990, 990-EZ, or 990-PF) or notice (Form 990-N) beginning with the year they legally form, even if they have not yet applied for or received recognition of tax-exempt status.
If you become tax-exempt, you will lose tax-exempt status if you fail to file a required return or notice for three consecutive years, unless a filing exception applies to you (search www.irs.gov for Annual Exempt Organization Return: Who Must File). We start calculating this three-year period from the tax year we assigned the EIN to you. If that first tax year isn't a full twelve months, you're still responsible for submitting a return for that year. If you didn't legally form in the same tax year in which you obtained your EIN, contact us at the phone number or address listed at the top of this letter.
